Episode 187 begins with a review of the April 18, 2017 installment of Smackdown Live. Charlotte staked her claim to the Smackdown Live Women’s Championship but was quickly confronted by the present champion, Naomi, as well as by a trio of women who were none too pleased to see Charlotte “line-jumping”. This would result in Charlotte taking on Naomi with a chance to become the #1 contender on the line. A Six-Pack Challenge took place between Dolph Ziggler, Erik Rowan, Jinder Mahal, Mojo Rawley, Luke Harper and Sami Zayn to determine the new #1 contender for the WWE Championship. The Colon Brothers took on American Alpha while in the Main Event, AJ Styles went up against Baron Corbin. How did this all play out? Tune in to Episode 187 to find out.
We then move to 205 Live from April 18, 2017 to discuss Akira Tozawa v. Tony Neese, the cringe-worthy breakup of Alicia Fox and Noam Dar, the curious goings on between Mustafa Ali and Drew Gulak and to review a damn good Main Event between Austin Aries and TJ Perkins. Why was this such an uneven episode of 205 Live in terms of quality? Tune in to Episode 187 to find out.
We then move on to the April 19, 2017 edition of NXT which began with a surprising return…and a new challenger for the NXT Champion, Bobby Roode. Andrade “Cien” Almas took on Danny Burch while Liv Morgan and Aliyah went up against Billie Kay and Peyton Royce. In the Main Event, it was time for the Perfect 10 to say goodbye to the NXT Universe…but not before he battled Eric Young inside a Steel Cage. In Tye Dillinger’s final NXT match, he and the leader of SAniTY gave us one of the better Steel Cage matches we have seen in a very long time. Tune in to Episode 187 for all the details.
We then close up shop on Episode 187 by welcoming Randy Carver Jr back to the show. Randy returns just days before Limitless Wrestling’s big “Can We Kick It” event coming up on April 28, 2017 in Portland, Maine. We preview the huge event with Randy and get his take on each of the awesome matches set for this instant classic of a card. We also talk to Randy about the controversy involving the You Tube algorithm, the impact it is having on Independent Wrestling companies, such as Limitless, and where he sees things going as we move forward. For Indy fans and promoters out there, it is essential listening and you can check it all out on Episode 187.
